🔥Roger is right!! @RogerJStoneJr: Our problem is NOT the screwball, Marxist Dems. OUR PROBLEM is the gutless, feckless, lily-livered, country club, establishment REPUBLICANS who have NEITHER the GUTS nor the BALLS to fight for America.” 🇺🇸
California launched a $23 million program to provide hearing aids for kids.
Five years later — only 300 have been given out.
That’s roughly $76,000 per hearing aid.
Retail cost is about $1,400.
Taxpayers are funding a system plagued by fraud and waste.
SpaceX a clôturé son premier jour de cotation à 2 100 milliards de dollars, +19%. Tout le monde regarde le chiffre. Personne ne regarde ce qu'il price réellement.
Laissez-moi vous dire ce que le marché vient d'acheter, et pourquoi je pense que cette boîte vaudra 30 à 50 trillions d'ici 5 ans.
D'abord, le symbole. Cette IPO est un référendum. D'un côté, 20 ans de discours sur la décroissance, la sobriété, la redistribution, la fin de l'histoire gérée par des comités. De l'autre, un homme qui a dit "je vais rendre l'humanité multiplanétaire", que tout le monde a traité de clown, et qui vient de créer la plus grosse entreprise cotée de l'histoire en partant d'un entrepôt à El Segundo. Le marché a voté. Le wokisme avait des départements RH, SpaceX avait des fusées. Les fusées ont gagné.
Ensuite, la mécanique économique, parce que c'est là que tout le monde se trompe. Les analystes valorisent SpaceX comme une entreprise de lancement plus Starlink. C'est comme valoriser Internet en 1995 sur le marché du fax. Starship ne réduit pas le coût du kilo en orbite de 20%, il le divise par 100. Et chaque fois dans l'histoire qu'un coût d'infrastructure est divisé par 100, ce n'est pas le marché existant qui grossit, ce sont des industries entières qui naissent. Le coût du calcul divisé par 100 a donné Internet, le smartphone, l'IA. Le coût de l'orbite divisé par 100 va donner une économie spatiale complète.
Faisons la liste de ce qui devient rentable quand le kilo en orbite coûte le prix d'un billet d'avion. Les data centers orbitaux, avec énergie solaire continue et refroidissement gratuit, au moment exact où l'IA fait exploser la demande énergétique terrestre. La fabrication en microgravité de semi-conducteurs, de fibres optiques, d'organes imprimés impossibles à produire sous gravité. Le tourisme orbital de masse, puis les hôtels lunaires, qui passeront du fantasme au business plan exactement comme la croisière de luxe au 20ème siècle. Le transport point à point terrestre, Paris-Tokyo en 40 minutes. L'industrie minière des astéroïdes, dont un seul corps de classe M contient plus de métaux que tout ce que l'humanité a extrait depuis le néolithique. Et Mars en ligne de mire, pas comme destination touristique, mais comme le plus grand projet d'infrastructure jamais entrepris, avec tout ce que ça implique de demande en énergie, matériaux, robotique, IA.
SpaceX ne participera pas à ces marchés. SpaceX possède le péage d'entrée de tous ces marchés. C'est AWS, mais pour la civilisation. Apple vaut 3 500 milliards en vendant des rectangles de verre sur une seule planète. Le premier monopole d'accès à une frontière infinie à 30 ou 50 trillions dans 5 ans, ce n'est pas de l'exubérance, c'est une simple règle de trois sur l'expansion du marché adressable.
Et maintenant, la partie que je préfère. Ce futur n'a pas besoin de bureaucrates. Il n'y a pas de comité consultatif en orbite. Pas de commission Théodule sur Mars. Chaque dollar de cette nouvelle économie sera créé par des ingénieurs, des techniciens, des soudeurs, des pilotes, des entrepreneurs. Les diplômés en gestion de la norme vont devoir apprendre un métier utile, et franchement, c'est une excellente nouvelle pour eux aussi : construire est infiniment plus fun que contrôler.
Parce que c'est ça, le vrai signal d'aujourd'hui. Pendant 50 ans on nous a vendu un futur rétréci : moins d'énergie, moins d'enfants, moins d'ambition, gérer le déclin proprement. Et là, d'un coup, le plus gros actif financier du monde est un pari sur l'abondance, l'expansion et l'aventure. Le pessimisme vient de passer en position vendeuse sur lui-même.
Le futur sera méga fun. Il y aura des hôtels avec vue sur la Terre, des honeymoons en orbite, des gamins qui diront "papa, c'était comment avant les fusées réutilisables" comme on dit "c'était comment avant Internet". Et quelque part dans les années 2030, un humain marchera sur Mars en livestream devant 5 milliards de personnes, et ce jour-là plus personne ne se souviendra du nom d'un seul de ses détracteurs.
Achetez de l'optimisme. C'est encore sous-valorisé.
🧠 Why You Can’t Remember Being a Toddler – The Surprising Truth About Your Brain
Ever wonder why your earliest memories are almost like a blank space? It’s not just forgetfulness—it’s your brain doing something amazing. Scientists call this childhood amnesia, and it’s all about how your brain grows.
When you were a toddler, your brain was busy building itself at lightning speed. New neurons were popping up, especially in the hippocampus, the part of your brain that stores long-term memories. Sounds good, right? But here’s the twist: all that growth actually makes it harder to hold onto those early memories.
Around age seven, your brain starts pruning and reorganizing, deciding which memories to keep and which to let go. This “mental reset” doesn’t erase you—it makes room for clear, structured memories, full of stories, feelings, and self-awareness.
Even though you forget most of your first years, those moments still shape you. Early sights, sounds, and feelings quietly influence how you connect with the world, even if you can’t recall them.
So the next time you can’t remember your third birthday, don’t worry. Your brain wasn’t broken—it was preparing you to become the person you are today. Memory shapes us, but forgetting helps us grow.
🚨 THREAD: What do Mike Pence, Mike Pompeo, John Bolton, and Elaine Chao have in common? They were all paid by a Marxist-Islamist Iran group that was designated as terrorist until 2012.
No, this is not a joke.
Mojahedin-e-Khalq (MEK) was founded by leftist Islamists to oppose the western-backed Pahlavi, and participated in his 1979 overthrow. Khomeini barred MEK afterwards. MEK was implicated in multiple bombings, including that of Americans, and remained an openly armed group until 2003.
Since they got de-listed as a terrorist organization in 2012 on procedural grounds, MEK and their fronts have been actively recruiting US politicians selling themselves as a moderate alternative to Khomeini. But RAND Corporation says MEK meets the qualifications for a cult, citing criteria such as forcing their members to work 16+ hour days and forced divorces.
Polls of the Iranian-American community shows that they do NOT accept Rajavi, MeK's leader, as legitimate, with a 46-point net disapproval - numbers nearly as bad as the existing regime.
As Pence's former Chief of Staff, Marc Short, has already weighed against Trump deal, it's helpful to recall this.
Receipts below. As always, patience as I pull the thread together.👇
I am proud to be teaming up with Karen Bass' brother in suing his sister for her reckless negligence that led to the destruction of our homes. I hope their Thanksgiving dinner isn't too awks. I know ours hasn't been the same since last year...
☢️You remember? Google optimized Shor's algorithm. The algorithm that breaks asymmetric cryptography (RSA, elliptic curves) once you have a quantum computer with enough Qubits.
The US government blocked the paper. So Google published a Zero Knowledge proof instead: a mathematical proof that they have the result, without revealing how. Cryptographic sorcery 🧙
But the Internet is sneaky. Someone launched a contest to re-discover the result with AI. The LLM searches a huge space of circuits (each one a candidate optimization of Shor's), and tests whether it beats the previous best. The clever part: they use the ZKP verifier as the reward function. No false positives, and it turns out to be a very efficient signal.
In less than 2 days, the community re-discovered Google's result !!!
🔔15 days later, the LLMs are still improving it. They're already 44% ahead of Google.
Hard to say where this stops, ie. what the true minimum quantum complexity for Shor's is. But we will not close the full gap. You still need a Quantum Computer with a relatively large number of qubits. The only thing that changed is that this number drops a little every day, and it has been dropping for 15 days straight.
Eric Davis sends Matthew Szydagis' soul to another dimension by telling him he's wrong about everything related to wormholes, time travel, and negative energy.
Bret Weinstein says we're in an Alice in Wonderland moment: the medical freedom movement finally has its strongest warrior running HHS, but there are even more powerful forces at work.
"So there's this tension between Bobby Kennedy. He knows this stuff as well as anybody. He's really encyclopedic in his understanding of science, the fraud that masquerades the science, the hidden hazards in the vaccines. He knows the COVID vaccine story backwards and forwards.
And yet in his position, he is presumably forced to work delicately. I assume knowing him that he's doing everything he can to move the ball in the right direction. But in a case like this, where you have the DOJ sandbagging it for pharma reasons, there's just a question of, well, what world are we in?"

CIA Director John Ratcliffe CONFIRMS: Indictments are COMING for John Brennan, James Comey, and Hillary Clinton over the Russia Hoax!
They spied on a President. They tried to steal an election. They weaponized our intelligence agencies against the American people.
THE RECKONING IS HERE.
This treasonous scandal ends NOW. No more cover-ups. No more deep state games.
JUSTICE IS FINALLY COMING!

THE ELITES WON'T TELL YOU THIS—but the science is clear.
The University of Nebraska just proved raising MORE COWS & eating MORE BEEF saves the planet.
Cows are carbon negative—they produce more oxygen than the methane & carbon they emit.
